3. SETUP Lamp You will need to install a lamp prior to the initial operation of the fixture. A 150W HTI lamp is included. Warning! When replacing the lamp, please wait 15 minutes after powering down to allow the unit to cool down! Always disconnect from main power prior to lamp replacement. Do not touch the envelope (glass area) of the bulb with bare hands. If this happens, clean the lamp with alcohol and wipe it with a lint free cloth before installation.
Lamp Alignment How-To Often, after a new installation of a lamp, you will find that there is an uneven field of light or what is refered to as a hot spot. This is due to the most intense point of the lamp source not being positioned optimally within the reflector. Lamp alignment screws There are three lamp alignment screws provided at the base of the fixture. Turning these screws allow you to optimize the projection quality of the spot as well as the overall intensity of the beam.
Replacing Gobos 1) Remove the four screws indicated in figure A to remove the back of the head. 2) Remove the four screws indicated in Figure A figure B to remove the front of the head. 3) Orient the fixture so that it looks like the fixture in figure C. 4) Remove the glue from the gobo (figure D) using tweezers. 5) Remove the retaining spring from the gobos. 6) Remove the existing gobo, and replace with a new gobo. 7) Replace the retaining spring.
Fixture Linking You will need a serial data link to run light shows of one or more fixtures using a DMX-512 controller or to run synchronized shows on two or more fixtures set to a master/slave operating mode. The combined number of channels required by all the fixtures on a serial data link determines the number of fixtures the data link can support.
